Abstract

SE DESCUBREN UN METODO Y UN APARATO PARA EL PROCESADO ASEPTICO Y CONTINUO DE PRODUCTOS ALIMENTICIOS, COMPRENDIENDO TROZOS DE ALIMENTOS DELICADOS, TALES COMO FRUTA, VERDURAS O SIMILARES INMERSOS EN UN LIQUIDO. EL APARATO COMPRENDE UN RECIPIENTE DE CALENTADO DENTRO DEL CUAL LOS PRODUCTOS ALIMENTICIOS, JUNTO CON UN GA NO ESTERIL, SON INTRODUCIDOS Y CALENTADOS A UNA TEMPERATURA DE ESTERILIZACION, EN UN RECIPIENTE DE MANTENIMIENTO PARA MANTENER LOS PRODUCTOS ALIMENTICIOS Y UN GAS ESTERIL INTRODUCIDO JUNTO CON ELLOS A LA TEMPERATURA DE ESTERILIZACION MEDIANTE UN PREDETERMINADO TIEMPO Y PREFERIBLEMENTE UN RECIPIENTE DE ENFRIADO PARA ENFRIAR LOS PRODUCTOS ALIMENTICIOS. LOS RECIPIENTES DE CALENTADO, MANTENIMIENTO Y ENFRIADO ESTAN PROVISTOS PREFERIBLEMENTE CON BOMBAS DE ALIMENTACION HELICOIDALES ROTANTES, EN COMUNICACION UNO CON OTRO, PARA PROPORCIONAR EL PRODUCTO Y EL GAS A TRAVES DE LOS RECIPIENTES EN SUCESION. EN UNA ACONSEJABLE DISPOSICION, UN PRIMER SEPARADOR SE INTERPONE ENTRE LOS RECIPIENTESDE CALENTADO Y MANTENIMIENTO PARA SEPARAR EL GAS NO ESTERIL DE LOS PRODUCTOS ALIMENTICIOS. LOS PRODUCTOS ALIMENTICIOS Y EL GAS AÑADIDO SON ALIMENTADOS AL INTERIOR DE UNA BOMBA DE ALIMENTACION HELICOIDAL ROTATIVA EN EL INTERIOR DEL RECIPIENTE DE MANTENIMIENTO. UN SEGUNDO SEPARADOR RECIBE EL PRODUCTO ALIMENTICIO ASEPTICO DESDE UNA BOMBA DE ALIMENTACION HELICOIDAL ROTABLE EN EL RECIPIENTE DE ENFRIADO PARA LA SEPARACION DEL GAS ASEPTICO Y UNA PARTE DEL LIQUIDO DEL PRODUCTO ALIMENTICIO, PARA PRODUCIR ALIMENTOS ASEPTICOS QUE SON ENTONCES ENVIADOS A UNA MAQUINA DE LLENADO DE ENVASES ADECUADA AL PROCESO.DISCOVER A METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE ASEPTIC AND CONTINUOUS PROCESSING OF FOOD PRODUCTS, INCLUDING PIECES OF DELICATE FOOD, SUCH AS FRUIT, VEGETABLES OR SIMILAR SIMILAR IN A LIQUID. THE APPLIANCE INCLUDES A HEATING CONTAINER WITHIN WHICH THE FOOD PRODUCTS, TOGETHER WITH A NON-STERILE GA, ARE INTRODUCED AND HEATED AT A STERILIZATION TEMPERATURE, IN A MAINTENANCE CONTAINER TO KEEP THE FOOD PRODUCTS TOGETHER WITH STERILE GASIDE AND THE STERILIZATION TEMPERATURE THROUGH A DEFAULT TIME AND PREFERABLY A COOLING CONTAINER FOR COOLING FOOD PRODUCTS. THE HEATING, MAINTENANCE AND COOLING CONTAINERS ARE PREFERABLY PROVIDED WITH ROTATING HELICAL PUMPS, IN COMMUNICATION WITH ONE ANOTHER, TO PROVIDE THE PRODUCT AND GAS THROUGH THE CONTAINERS IN SUCCESSION. IN AN ADVISABLE ARRANGEMENT, A FIRST SEPARATOR STANDS BETWEEN HEATING AND MAINTENANCE CONTAINERS TO SEPARATE NON-STERILE GAS FROM FOODSTUFFS. FOOD PRODUCTS AND ADDED GAS ARE FEED INSIDE A ROTARY HELICAL FEED PUMP INSIDE THE MAINTENANCE CONTAINER. A SECOND SEPARATOR RECEIVES THE ASEPTIC FOOD PRODUCT FROM A ROTABLE HELICOPLE FEED PUMP IN THE COOLING CONTAINER FOR THE SEPARATION OF THE ASEPTIC GAS AND A PART OF THE LIQUID OF THE FOOD PRODUCT THAT IS SEVENTEN IN SEASON. SUITABLE FOR THE PROCESS.
